Linda, In Virginia Beach, VA there is a Cape Henry. I suspect named for Captain Henry KELLUM. There is a record of Probate for his estate in the mid-late 1700's. I have seen a copy of this and cannot find it. However it is either in Accomack or Norhthampton Co. VA Wills Abstracts. Now everyone on this list is familiar with original land owner Richard KELLUM from same area, much earlier in 1620's etc. I do believe that Capt. Henry KELLUM was a Sea Captain and his ship is most likely traceable in some records somewhere.... Should you turn up something there, could you please contact me with that info? I would appreciate it. Meanwhile I will continue to look for that old Estate document. (For what it is worth I do believe that your Henry is related to a KELLUM /KELLAM directly or indirectly.) Keep pressing on. Try surrounding counties in your broad search. Also military records are fairly good and available sources. They help us to tie a family to a certain place and time. What does the GODDARD line tell you?
